Yeah, I'd second that. I've had them both, didn't see any differences
on the prints (Moose, yes, I did make 8x10, although B/W - does that
count?) and thus kept the one which had the brightest viewfinder. The
28/2.8 can be amazingly cheap to come about, btw., I think I saw one
in decent shape for about 50 EUR in a shop about a month ago.
I'd say go for whichever of them you find a sample of with good
glass.
